is this an outdoor pump?

I am using it as my sump pump but would think you could use it outside. Its under water all the time unless the pit is dry. Just keep the plug dry.

Yes, the Zoeller M53 is an outdoor pump, as it is waterproof electrically. In my application, the pump normally rests in water just above the impeller casting and turns on when the water gets to be 2/3 of the water-pump housing via the float. The pump sits in a basin that is two feet down into the earth. Consider Monnit sensors to tell you when the pump turns on, so you know it is operational. Google Monnit. If running underground conduit for electrical power to the pump, ensure compliance with your local city codes. Hope this helps.

This pump could be used outdoors. It is a fully submersable pump. The electrical plug can not get wet and needs to be protected from water/liquid.

I've used one outside for about 8 years (with a fair amount of sub-freezing temps - Upstate SC) & the only problem I've had was in using a 3/4" hose for the discharge. It got clogged & burnt up the motor. Getting ready to order another one & use a larger hose. I will also use some sort of screening on the top grillwork of the sump box.

This is a limited duty submersible sump pump. Designed for removal of foundation water to the outside. I see no reason it couldn't be used outside as long as there is some protection from freezing temperatures.

I doubt this is a mistake. I believe this pump is intended for irrigation, which is the use I purchased it for.

I would not leave it outside and don't consider it weather proof....but it is a very sturdy pump. Any 120 volt powered motor is going to fail if it gets wet enough and would also be dangerous if not run off a GFCI powered outlet...

I bought this for an outdoor pump for my small fountain. I would think it would work for indoor as well but not for sure

I have mine on a switch, it is not an automatic on/off water activated pump.

Well the pump is a submersible pump so if you have it plugged into a place that the plug is protected from the environment I do not see why not.

I have mine in a Pump House along with my pool pump, Salt Generator controls and Sand Filter. I am sure that the outdoor elements will shorten the life of the pump but think it can be used outside. Mine did not come with an "Indoor Use Only" label or directions.

yes, 110 v pump, but it doesn't have a plug...you'll have to wire your own 3 prong plug to it, though it's pretty easy.

It has to be connected to the pump, it is not a stand alone,however it can be used in the pond or out.

Not electrically. Put a valve on the out side of the pump to control flow rate, works great.

The pump is electric and built in to the bed. Not sure why the title was changed. Perhaps someone is up to some tomfoolery.

Most local authorities do not allow a water powered pump as a primary pump, only as a secondary, or emergency backup pump. I suppose they look at the water usage as an issue. As to whether it would function as a primary, that depends on the amount of water you get in the sump and the water supply to the pump.

It needs a electrical outlet. The cord with the pump is about 4 feet long, although I have it plugged into an longer cord.

Yes it is an on demand pump. I use it on our camper where there is no city water. I use it hooked to a water container and hook to my city hook up instead of using the campers water tank and pump. It has worked flawlessly! Great product

I do not know. However, the pump has been going for several years now without issue.

Can be outside, but to be prudent, I would shelter it from rain/snow. Mine is in a nearby, unheated garage. I used an old garden hose section to run from pump to manifold. Could be any length.
